Embracing the Spirit of Giving

For me, one of the most gratifying parts of the holiday season is finding new ways to give, whether it’s showing appreciation, offering support or giving back to the communities in which we live and work.

I am so lucky in that we all at Almo Corporation and Exertis Almo share that same sentiment, reflected in our long-running #AlmoGivesBack initiative.

Throughout the year, we do our best to support and give, but it really kicks into high gear around the holidays. Just before Thanksgiving, we were delighted to be able to donate a truck full of non-perishable food items and a $4,500 check to the Somerton Interfaith Food Bank, an organization that Exertis Almo has supported for the last 20 years! And in December, we participated in toy drives for a local children’s hospital and a program to help financially insecure members of our community, as well as donated supplies to a local pet pantry. We love to support causes that help those nearest and dearest to us.

This holiday season, we’ve had the opportunity to spread our net wider, becoming a corporate sponsor to charitable organizations that resonate with us. I encourage you to check out “Swim With Purpose,” an organization focused on restoring the aquatic facility for students and the community at Kentucky State University, as well as AdcommTV’s Darkness2Hope, which develops technology to detect and deter human trafficking.

You can read more about how we harnessed the power and passion of our employees to give thanks and give back here.

Here’s wishing you a wonderful season of #GivingBack from myself and all of us here at #TeamExertisAlmo. Happy holidays!
